Hmm. The scheduler changes seem to show problems with suspend/resume.

I now get his when suspending:

...
Disabling non-boot CPUs ...
Cannot set affinity for irq 285
smpboot: CPU 1 is now offline
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 25 at kernel/sched/sched.h:812

the issue may have been going on for a while, but the new WARN_ON()
was added in this merge window.

(Not sure how consistent this warning is, it definitely doesn't happen
every time, I've only seen it once)
